    How would you write (did you write) your own magical girl story?

    I started on a magical girl story, but never completed it. I could do it now, but to be honest, I don't think I'd want to. Not that it's bad, but just that I want to write other things

    Writing [Tutorial] Plot Devices: Deus Ex Machina, Chekhov's Gun & Foreshadowing

    Then why create a tutorial to begin with? Tutorials are to inform the masses about something in particular, and its something people new to a specific subject would look to for guidance. If the person making the tutorial doesn't bother to do their research, then there will be misinformation...

    Writing [Tutorial] Plot Devices: Deus Ex Machina, Chekhov's Gun & Foreshadowing

    Thats the definition of minor characters. Minor characters are characters whose place is to be filler in stories, or to say a single line and thats it. Side characters can indeed forward the plot, though its not needed. Think about it. If side characters can't forward the plot then there would...

    Writing [Tutorial] Plot Devices: Deus Ex Machina, Chekhov's Gun & Foreshadowing

    The only real thing I disagree with in this tutorial would be the foreshadowing section. As Armored99 has pointed out, foreshadowing doesn't inherently have to be at the opening scene of the story. In fact, I believe the opening scene of the story should be void of most foreshadowing. Instead it...

    Writing [Tutorial] The Curse of Run-On Dialogue AKA; Narration Run Amok

    Granted, there are moments when a character speaking for multiple paragraphs with no break can be great for a story. It all depends on a few aspects. 1: The dialogue is interesting. The problem I see when authors do this, is that the dialogue they use is rather uninteresting. There's no...

    I offer free feedback. (Closed)

    It would be interesting hearing about someone's opinion on my story. It is does have the smut tag, but there is an overall story going on that I'm pretty proud of myself. I'm nearly finished with the first major arc of my story too, so this times well with that. The link is in the signature if...

    When you realize it!

    When I was a freshman, I wrote a story on storyfire and I thought I was writing a masterpiece that would take the entire site and shoot it into the stratosphere. Then a year later after I moved on to other things, I read it. I don't know what the actual fuck I was thinking back then.

    Writing Prompt De-escalating a conflict

    "Flat is justice!" The white knight yells as he charges on his steel clad horse, javelin in hand. "Oppai is truth!" The black knight retorts, battle axe primed for an overhead strike. Just as they were about to collide, a woman wearing a pristine turquoise gown broke into the arena. The...

    What's the best story you've ever read on Scribble Hub?

    Never read a novel on here. Too busy writing my own and doing school shit. I do critique beginner authors though from the story feedback forum. Isn't that the phone game where you have to find that missing person? I remember seeing Jacksepticeye play it. And yes, I know the definition of...

    Calling all Authors for... the Author Write Off!

    I mean, I guess it just depends on how long the stories should be. If I'm meant to write a whole book, I'm out. I'm already writing and editing 2k words every day while simultaneously having to write multiple essays in my AP English class. If it's a short story with a max of 5k words, I can do...

    Writing Hot Takes

    People seem to mistake writing simplistically as don't write large paragraphs. I cannot tell you the amount of times on RR when people said my paragraphs were too long and I need to write more simplistic, when most of the sentences I wrote barely went into any description. Taking that advice...

    Guys guys

    I mean, it'll get me working at least. I need to get a good backlog but, like, the keyboard is so far, and the docs tab is all the way on the other side of the screen.

    What is your favorite way to conduct research for your stories?

    I usually write pure fantasy, so I don't normally do research cause I can just make up my own stuff. However, with my current story, even though its set in a city that doesn't exist in real life, it takes place in a modern setting which made me have to do some form of research. I usually use the...

    What is the worst criticism you have received?

    I remember when I was writing on RR, one dude that reviewed my story said that it was hard to tell who's speaking, which doesn't make sense to me cause I way overused dialogue tags. The rest of their review was good, but that just stood out to me as weird.

    Your opinion on...

    I've heard of people losing their patreon account for posting non-pc stuff. Since my story is filled with things like sex, both legal and non-legal, though never glorified, can get a patreon banned just for having that type of stuff, no matter if its glorified or frowned upon. As an example...

    Your opinion on...

    RR: It's pretty cool but it'll take some time for you to gain an audience unless you write LitRPG. SH: Pretty noob friendly and way easier to gain an audience, but it's hard to gauge your skills as a writer since everyone gives 5-stars like they're lollipops at a carnival. WN: I never wrote...
